Edward J. Monfore Biography This biography appears on pages 748-750 in "History of South Dakota" by Doane Robinson, Vol. I (1904)
EDWARD J. MONFORE is a native of the old Empire state of the Union, having been born in Delaware county, New York, on the 13th of March, 1828, so that he has now passed the psalmist's span of three score years and ten, but is a man of marked mental and physical vigor, giving slight indication of the years which stand to his credit. He is a son of Garrett and Paty (Smith) Monfore, and is the eldest of their four children, all of whom survive, the others being as follows: Rebecca, who is the wife of Rodney Chichester, of New Canaan, Connecticut; Mary, who is the wife of Henry Monroe, of Council Grove, Kansas; and Elizabeth, who is the wife of John Waterman, of Broome county, New York. The maternal grandfather Smith was a Revolutionary soldier and his widow drew a pension. The father of the subject was born in the state of New York, where the family was established in the early pioneer epoch, and there he passed his entire life. As a young man he learned the blacksmith trade, which he followed for a number of years, after which he was engaged in farming during the remainder of his active business career, having removed from Delaware county to Broome county, where his death occurred in 1845. He was a Whig in his political proclivities and was an ardent abolitionist. He and his wife were both consistent members of the Congregational church. The latter was likewise born in the state of Connecticut and lived to very old age. They were persons of noble characteristics and lived lives of signal honor and usefulness. Edward J. Monfore, whose name initiates this sketch, was reared under the sturdy discipline of the home farm, and after attending the common schools of Broome county he continued his studies for some time in an excellent academy at Homer, New York. As a young man he worked on the farm and at various other occupations, being signally energetic and ambitious and early exemplifying that good judgment which has conserved his success in later years. At the age of twenty-five years he entered upon an apprenticeship at the trade of wagonmaking, becoming a competent workman, and to this vocation he continued to devote his attention for about a decade, in the meanwhile carefully husbanding his resources and exemplifying the utmost thrift and perseverance. In 1864 he left his native state and came to the west, locating in Warren county, Iowa, where he purchased one hundred and sixty acres of land, as well as forty acres in the adjoining county of Marion. One year later he disposed of both of these properties and purchased another farm of one hundred and sixty-five acres in Warren county, to which he subsequently added until he had a good farm of two hundred and five acres. There he continued to be successfully engaged in agricultural pursuits for nearly eighteen years, becoming one of the honored and influential citizens of the community. He there served two terms as clerk of Belmont township, and one term as a member of the board of county commissioners. In the spring of 1882, having disposed of his interests in Iowa, Mr. Monfore came to South Dakota. and located in Springfield, Bon Homme county, where he has since maintained his home, being one of the founders and builders of this now prosperous and attractive little city, and having also been identified with the industrial development of this favored section of our great commonwealth. He is the owner of six hundred and forty acres of valuable farming land in the county, the same being divided into four farms, and he gives a general supervision to the property, which is well improved and under effective cultivation. He is also the owner of a nice residence and other property in Springfield. In politics Mr. Monfore gave his allegiance to the Whig party until the organization of the Republican party, when he transferred his allegiance to the latter, of whose principles and policies he has ever since been an unswerving advocate, having been one of those who aided in the election of the delegates to the first Republican state convention in New York. In 1885 he was elected a member of the board of commissioners of Bon Homme county, in which capacity he served two terms, during which period he gave significant manifestation of his loyalty and intrinsic public spirit. He was also elected and served nine years as a member of the board of education at Springfield. He, with George W. Snow and J. L. Turner, constituted the committee having in charge the erection of its first normal school building here, the cost of which, ten thousand dollars, was donated by the citizens of Springfield, the subject himself contributing two hundred dollars. Fraternally he is affiliated with Mount Zion Lodge, No. 6, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, and the auxiliary organization, Springfield Chapter, No. 11 Order of the Eastern Star, of which his wife likewise is a member; and he is also identified with Springfield Lodge, No. 7, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and Deborah Lodge, No. 52, Daughters of Rebekah, of which Mrs. Monfore is a member. On the 15th of June, 1852, at Centre Lisle, New York, was solemnized the marriage of Mr. Monfore to Miss Clarissa Chapin, who was born in Michigan and reared in Yorkshire, Broome county, New York. Of this union were born four children, of whom three survive: Edward C., who is a retired merchant of Springfield; George J., who is engaged in farming in this county; Carrie, who is the wife of Charles Melick, a farmer of this county. Mr. Monfore's first wife passed away October 8, 1864, dying of typhoid fever at Coloma, Iowa. He subsequently married, in Putnam county, Illinois, Miss Lottie Melick, who was born in New Jersey and reared in East Enterprise, Indiana. By the latter union were born three children, all of whom grew to maturity and were married. The eldest, Fanny, who was the wife of Dr. R. D. Melvin, now of Parker, this state, was caught in a folding bed and received injuries which caused her death. She had one son, Adney. The next child, Frank, is proprietor of the Springfield House, at Springfield, this state, and the youngest, Stella, is the wife of George B. Mead, of Port Stanley, Washington.

NO. 17661 • 10 August 1927 – 19 September 1951
Killed in Action 19 September 1951, in Korea, aged 24 Years
"Theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die." - On September 19, 1951, Bloody Heartbreak Ridge, Hill 851, Korea, Love Company Commander, Lt. Peter Howland Monfore, and many comrades of the 23rd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Division, met their death. These are the facts as told by the one surviving officer of Love Company.
"The morning of September 12, attack orders came. The Battalion was to cross the L.D. with 'H', 'I', 'K', and 'L' Company spearheading. Heartbreak Ridge was reached and we managed to fight our way up about two hundred yards before dark. On the days following this move, the push for HiII 851 started and the objective was almost reached. Peter was always up front with the assault platoon. He said the men liked to see their commanding officer around when the chips were down. The night of the 18th, Pete received orders for a night attack on 851. We moved through 'K' Co. at 10:00 PM o'clock and made our way right up on the hill. We dug in, everyone was so tired and happy. Four o'clock on the mornIng of the 19th, the Reds hit Love Company with two battalions. They cut off 'K' Company from us and soon had us completely surrounded. Peter had been reading his Bible. Sensing something was wrong, he put it down, picked up his carbine. As soon as we were out of our bunks we knew it was more than just a probing attack. The fight was overwhelming. We used up all our ammunition. Peter grabbed a BAR, then found a machine gun. The fighting became closer and bitter. We were surrounded. At about two PM o'clock I saw Pete coming toward me. An enemy burp gun got him in the chest, one bullet found his heart. Peter died very shortly, conscious all the time, and very calm and cool. He smiled at me, tried, but couldn't speak. We put him on a litter, and I covered him with a blanket. I think he tried to tell me to take care of the remaining men. Finally 'K' and 'I' companies came up from behind and helped us to pull back. We, of Love Company, had only forty-four (44) men left out of one hundred and sixty-seven (167)."
"On October 12, Love Company was given the mission of retaking Hill 851. We took it. I am sure every man had Peter on his mind when we finally got up there. The battle of September 18th lasted fourteen hours. I have never seen Pete's equal in or out of the Army. Peter was a Christian man, and lived every minute of his life as such, always saying his daily prayers and blessing his 'C' rations whenever he ate, doing for others, constantly bringing hope and encouragement to his men and being very considerate and thoughtful. I shall never forget him as long as I live. The men are putting him in for the Congressional Medal of Honor. We hope he gets it. We all thought so much of him."
Thus, ended the short but full und glorious life of Lieut. Peter Howland Monfore, oldest of five children of Mr. and Mrs. Howland Swift Monfore of Springfield, South Dakota.
Peter was born in South Dakota on August 10, 1927. His childhood and early youth were spent in the ordinary activities of most boys. He was always a good student and very active in all school activities. He loved sports and participated and was a leader in them. Football was his great love.
Peter was baptized and confirmed in the Ascension Episcopal Church of Springfield, South Dakota.
After attending school at Springfield and Tyndall, South Dakota, Peter progressed to graduation with honors from Washington High School, Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and immediately enlisted in the Navy, where he remained until 1946, when he received a letter from the Secretary of War, notifying him of an appointment to the United States Military Academy.
After much deliberation, he decided to accept and was given an honorable discharge from the Navy and entered West Point July 1st, 1946.
While taking Naval training at the University of Wisconsin, Pete became interested in boxing and under the splendid coaching of Dewitt Portal, John Walsh, and Julius Menendez, he became very proficient, receiving the Best Contenders trophy award. He followed this sport at U.S.M.A, and Peter "The Rock", as he was affectionately called, went on to Captain the Army boxing team, and to make many splendid NCAA showings, and to win the Eastern Intercollegiate lightheavy weight title championship for two successive years, 1949 and 1950.
Peter's character expanded and increased in strength, and he became a proud aud worthy cadet, meeting and encountering the new ways of life, with a serious and business-like attitude. He truly abided by the West Point code of "Duty, Honor, Country", but added to it, love of God.
Peter was well known and respected by the cadets, and was a bulwark to which any in need could turn; perhaps this is made clearer by the facts that he was chosen a member of the Honor Committee and Cadet CO of "E-2" Company, besides remaining well up in his class scholastically, teaching Sunday School, playing football and boxing. Peter was a good student, a Christian, a fine athlete, a capable leader, and an outstandIng cadet, but he was never too busy to help. He was admired and loved by all who knew or came in contact with him, and they were many, for when the news of his tragic death became known, hundreds of letters of sympathy, praise and comfort came pouring in from all over the nation and abroad. We marveled at how many had been affected by his personality, unselfishness, kindness, helpfulness, sportsmanship, leadership, honesty, integrity, thoughtfulness, love of God, and love for his fellow men, which were all displayed with modesty and humility,
Peter developed and devoted much time to growth in spirit. He adopted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and wished for all his friends to find his own firm belief and comfort in the knowledge of God, wherein lies our salvation. The will of God was of great importance to Pete. He was active in many religious groups and was constantly trying to give others the strength and comfort received from his belief.
Peter chose for his tour of duty the Far East Command, feeling that there with the Infantry he could best serve his Lord and country. Following graduation from U.S.M.A. in June 1950, he spent a few weeks among friends and at home. In August 1950, with his spiritual and military background so fresh and new, he was shipped to the battlefield of Korea. In three days he received his first wounds while leading a platoon. After three weeks' hospitalization and convalesence he returned to the 23rd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Division, and served with it in various capacities, such as platoon leader, regimental liaison officer, etc. Twice he turned down opportunities to become "General's Aide". That was not for him. He wanted to be with the front line men. Finally, he was given Love Company to command. Now he was supremely happy. He said, "It is the best job in the whole Army". He was ever looking after, not only the physical needs but the spiritual needs of his men.
Peter was a member of the Christian Military Men's Committee, and their first member to be killed. This is the spiritual report of his life as written by a member:
"Several months previous to his death, Lieut. Monfore had sent us the names of his friends and military associates who were either unsaved or needing the Lord Jesus Christ, or Christians in need of spiritual encouragement. From that time on a regular prayer program for the men has been begun and Gospel messages designed to meet their individual needs sent to them, that witness shall result in their salvation. 'For none of us liveth to himself, and no mail dieth unto himself, for whether we live, we live unto the Lord and whether we die,
we die unto the Lord, whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lords.' Romans 14:7-8. The eternal truth of this statement of God's word is beautifully illustrated in the life and death of Lieut. Peter Howland Monfore. How gloriously true are God's words, 'He being dead, yet Speaketh.'
"Peter was courageous. He was awarded a French medal and citation by General Monclar, Commander of the French U.N. forces, for great courage, in spite of fierce enemy cross fire, in rescuing a French battalion which had been surrounded by the enemy".
Great comfort and pride were found in these excerpts from letters which paid tribute to his character:
"My loss could not have been greater had it been my own family. As fine a man as ever walked the face of the earth. What a fiercely precious thing this freedom must be when it is bought and paid for with the lives of young men such as Pete. May God give us the sense of values to appreciate what it means."
"I cannot think of any boy that has left the impression that Pete left with me. I can't count the times that I have talked to my friends and boys in my classes about him. Peter was the model athlete. When you meet a boy in athletics or physical education like Pete, then you know you are in the right business. I shall always try to develop the fine qualities Peter possessed."
"Your boy was certainly as fine a soldier as West Point has ever produced. He lived up to every part of, 'Duty, Honor, Country', Among all the the men we lost in this grinding battle, it is hard to say who could be the hardest to lose, but Pete had every attribute of greatness, and was potentially one of the Army's bright young stars. For several hours we couldn't believe he was really gone, and kept praying for his return. As a soldier, there is little in war to recommend itself to me. The only recompense is in the sense of duty performed for our country, and the great comradeship and respect engendered for our fighting brothers. Ernie Pyle could have written of this battle and your son. I cannot. We of the 23rd lnfantry share your grief and participate in your fierce pride."
"Peter was an exceptionally fine young officer and was on my staff until he took over Love Company in August, and he immediately established it as a top outfit. The night preceding his death he executed a brilliant attack on a dominant hill of Heartbreak Ridge of unparalleled success and daring. We all predicted a shining future for your son and his men had a deep affection for him. Only a few days before, I signed a recommendation for his promotion to Captain. We are asking one of the country's highest awards for your son, the highest decoration our government can give."
"Pete was one of my best friends. I feel it a genuine privilege to have been his friend and feel that I am a better man today for having known him. Pete had many friends, probably as many as any man that ever graduated from the Point. Ours was a special friendship, a little stronger than ordinary. Peter and I had a common understanding of each other. I understood his religious views, his strict adherence to physical conditioning, his unflinching honesty. I respected him for it and he knew It. He never failed to make me laugh when I was down. The news of Peter’s death left me more stunned and grieved than I have ever been in my entire life. I last had seen Peter in Korea in April, 1951, near the IittIe town of Hong Chon. He hadn't changed a bit, but looked like he did when he entered the boxing ring, grim and ready for the job ahead, yet ready with a smile."
"As a member of my battalion, Pete, as he was affectionately called, was highly respected and beloved by all the officers and men of the unit. He was an outstanding officer, considerate, kind, gentle, yet firm. His regular attendance at church service was an indication of his true character in the spirit of love of God. This was a form of his duty, and with Pete the word duty was but another name for the will of the Almighty and to perform this was the sole aim of his life. News of his death stunned every member of this unit, and his loss will be felt keenly in the organization."
These are just a few of the many, many tributes paid to Lieut. Peter Howland Monfore, no longer present on this earth.
We who survive him are proud to look back on his accomplishments and let them be examples which he set forth to serve us and inspire us in our attempt to fulfill the tasks that he would have completed. Pete met death pridefully and manfully in the service of his country, and with faith in his devotion to duty and in defense of all that we and the free people of the world hold most dear. Let us hope that it has helped us on the long hard road by which we may expect to reach a just, honorable, and enduring peace.
-The Monfore Family.

by Fred H. Monfore, Yankton, S.D., September 1954
VI. GARRET MONFORE (Born Sept. 24, 1784; died Oct. 23, 1845).
Garret Monfore, third child of Peter Monfore and Olive Couvenhoven, was born Sept. 24, 1784 in New Jersey; baptized Nov. 7, 1784 (Reading Church Record and Somerset, N.J., Quarterly, Vol. VI., p.228); died Oct. 23, 1845; buried at Center Lisle, Broome Co., New York. Inscription on tombstone (copied June 10, 1947 by Dr. Willard Monfort, a great-grandson of Garret) reads:-"Deacon Garret Monfore, died Oct. 23, 1845. Age 61 years. Blessed are the Dead who die in the Lord". There is quite a space in the lot on either side of Garret's stone but no markers to indicate if other burials made.
Garret was reportedly a very religious man, and very strict with his family. He was said to have been extremely musical, possessing the rare gift of absolute or perfect pitch. He served as choir leader in his church in Center Lisle.
Garret Monfore was married three times:- first to Sally Griswold, next to Lydia Bartlett, then to Patty (or Pathy or Polly) Smith.(Note by Dr. Willard Monfort:- April 30, 1838, Garret Monfore and his wife, Polly, "Pulley", parties of the first part, of the town of Lisle, Broome Co., N.Y., sold to Jonathan M. Hall, party of the second part, for $2150.00, three parcels of land. Signed, Garret & Pathy. Recorded Liber of Deeds, No. 19, on p. 355, 357).
(Note:- the Polly, or "Pulley" or "Pathy", mentioned above was undoubtedly Garret's third wife. Mrs. Robert W. (Winifred Pomeroy) Scott, of Walton, N.Y., a great-grand-daughter of Garret, and grand-daughter of Sally Monfore Pomeroy, wrote me on July 25, 1950, that Garret's third wife was named Patty or Bertha White. But in a family Bible which belonged to Mrs. Carrie Monfore Melick, a grand-daughter of Garret, and now in possession of Mrs. Melick's grand-daughter, Mrs. James Robert (Alta Marie) Kussman, of Yankton, S.D., all three of Garret's wives are listed, with birth, death and marriage dates, and it states that "Garret Monfore was married to Patty Smith on May 14, 1826"---FHM). Garret Monfore's first wife was Sally Griswold, whom he married on Nov. 10, 1812. Sally was born Jan. 27, 1791, and died May 10, 1823. Garret and Sally had four children. They were:-
1. Rhoda F.--Born Aug. 21, 1813, died Nov. 6, 1869, at Croton, N.Y. Married on April 13, 1837, in Croton, to Enos Wolcott, of Croton (born Dec. 12, 1814). They had four children:- Albert C., Watson E., Caroline and Thomas. (Dr. Willard Monfort said Watson E. Wolcott, who was born in 1852 and lived in Oneonta, N.Y., claimed to have the Monfore family record, but the doctor was unable to obtain any information from Watson in spite of repeated requests. One of Watson's sons, Claude or Fred, or other descendant, might have some records). 2. Whiting Griswold Monfore--Second child of Garret and Sally, born May 21, 1815, and died Aug. 13, 1838, at Henry, Illinois. He was a doctor, and had never married. He died at the home of one Elias Thompson, and was a victim of a fever (typhoid?) epidemic which he was fighting.
(Note:- In 1838 Henry was in Putnam County, with the town of Hennepin lying to the north as the county seat. Later the county was divided, the north portion becoming Putnam County, the south portion is located becoming Marshall County. Hennepin is still the county seat of Putnam County, and papers in connection with the closing of teh estate of Dr. Whiting G. Monfort (sic), including correspondence between his father, Garret, in Center Lisle, N.Y., and Elias Thompson, and also between Garret and the court, are on file (No. 49, Box File 2) in the ancient court house at Hennepin.

VI. GARRET MONFORE (Born Sept. 24, 1784; died Oct. 23, 1845).
Garret Monfore, third child of Peter Monfore and Olive Couvenhoven, was born Sept. 24, 1784 in New Jersey; baptized Nov. 7, 1784 (Reading Church Record and Somerset, N.J., Quarterly, Vol. VI., p.228); died Oct. 23, 1845; buried at Center Lisle, Broome Co., New York. Inscription on tombstone (copied June 10, 1947 by Dr. Willard Monfort, a great-grandson of Garret) reads:-"Deacon Garret Monfore, died Oct. 23, 1845. Age 61 years. Blessed are the Dead who die in the Lord". There is quite a space in the lot on either side of Garret's stone but no markers to indicate if other burials made.

IV. ABRAHAM (ABRAM) MONFORT (MONFOORT)--(b. about 1730; d. about 1789). Abraham Monfort, son of Pieter Janse Monfoort and Margrietje Hoff, was baptized Feb. 3, 1730. Donald A. Sinclair, of Rutgers U., New Brunswick, N.J., says that Abraham dropped the double "o" in his last name, spelling it Monfort, although occasionally reverting to the Dutch "oo". Abraham married Neiltje (Nellie) van Voorhees. (Note:- there is some uncertainty as to Nellie's last name, according to Dr. Willard Monfort, but it is believed to have been either Voorhees or van Voorhees).Donald A. Sinclair says:- "Abraham apparently died in 1789, his inventory being dated Aug. 27 of that year. Although he is described as of Readington Township, there is evidence that he moved around somewhat..."
Abraham joined the North Branch Church, New Jersey (Readington) in 1779, was named a deacon in 1782, an elder in 1785. Nellie had joined the same church in 1764.
Abraham owned two farms in New Jersey at the time of his death. He left no will, and the last four children, being minors, petitioned the court (Feb. 4, 1792) through their mother that she sell the property, as she had supported them for "upwards of two years". The court allowed her to sell. Abraham's widow and her eldest son, Pieter (Peter), sold their New Jersey farms (reserving a percentage of any minerals that might later be found) and moved to Harpersfield, Delaware County, New York. (Donald A. Sinclair says that Abraham apparently was in York County, Pennsylvania, for a time, as he was named executor of his brother, Peter, who died there in 1769. The will was probated on Oct. 30, 1769. But by the following spring Abraham was back in Readington, New Jersey).
